Free Trade.

The reduction of internal revenue
and the taking off of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers,
as well as relieving the burden OF
home manufacturers. Especially is
this the case with GREEN'S August
Flower and Boschee's German Syrup,
as the reduction of thirty-six cents
per dozen, has been added to increase
the. size of the bottles containing
these remedies, thereby giving one
fifth more medicine in the rs cent
size. The August Flower for Dys-
pepsia and Liver Complaint, and the
German Syrup for Cough and Lung
troubles. have perhaps the largest
sale OF any medicines in the world.
The advantage of increased size of
the bottles will be greatly appreciated
by the sick and afflicted, in every
town and village in civilized coun-
tries. Sample bottles for 10 cents
remain the same size.

Among the nominations that failed

Among the nominations that failed
because they were not considered at
the last session of Congress was that
of Capt. Israel Green, to be Indian
agent in Dakota. The nomination
was first made two years ago, but
failed then as it has just done because
the Republican Senate would not con-
firm a man who had resigned from the
Federal to serve in the Confederate
army, and who was also the first man
to enter the engine house at Harper
Ferry in which John Brown had en-
trenched himself. It is not known
whether the President will reappoint
him.

POETlCAL.
A Warning to Basbful. Men.

He sat beside her near the stove,
prey 10 bashfuiness;
To her he spoke no word of love-. aft
Nor sought her hand to press
No maiden ever had been wooed
BY him the fact was plain.
For silently he sat and chewed
The knob upon his cane.
Sometimes he at the ceiling gazed,
Sometimes his glacc would stray
To her, but when her eyes she raised
He looked another way.
And thus they silent sat till she
Said, "John. ought to state
That pa and ma are out to tea
And won't return till late.
"Now while they're absent do not tease.
But pray remember this:--
My hand you must not try to squeeze,
Nor steal from me kiss"
At once the knob that graced the cane
John from his mouth withdrew
And said, 81 won't; don't think, Miss Jane
That I'd do that to you" AGE.
A deeper silence then cnsued
Than had prevailed before;
John vigorously his canes knob chcwed,
frown James visage wore.
And thus they sat till half-past ten.
And when John rose to go
And asked II he might call again,
Jane CURLY answered "No!"

No man is a hero to his typewriter girl The
nature of the undattering information which slie

which mems Wallets used to find out in the times,
when men had Wallets. but it is just fatal to an
ideal. The ever present amanuensis's watchful
eye her ear that no syllable escapes. take in all
his little weaknesses and iot them down ndeliby
in a mental note book. She sees his mind which
the world takes to be brilliantly and swiftly con-
structive. struggling in its paltrv workshop and
she knows where he goes to borrow good ma
of his tools: she listens to his falterng tons ne
while it painfully evolves utterances afterwards
to be bartered to the world under the slitterng
label extempore; she knows his procrastin atoms
and his petty cowardices in dealing with his
correspondence, and has seen him shy away
again and again, under pretexts too hollow to
deceive her, from some matter which he could
easily face if he chose to; she has been the VIC
tim, now and then, of his little impatences. In
short, she through the mask of pratence
that deceives the world, and her knowledge is
destructive to any aureole of greatness that her
imagination may have formed about him before
she had the opportunity to study him at short
range.
